Well, then you need to look at what your connections (=HBA WWID's) are called:

HSG80> show conn

Then you'll see a list of your HBA WWID's. If you have other units (Dxxx) allocated for the same node already, you find the connections even easier by looking at the other units parameters:

HSG80> sho Dyyy

Where it shows (among the other info) the connections which have access to that unit. Then you can just use the same names:

HSG80> set Dxxx enab=connection_name
well that ends up being quite a list since I have 2 HBAs in each node, connected to
to two switches, each with two connections to the two controllers, Oh well. It wasn't
bad with cut and paste, but after i was done, I doscovered I could have said
set D11 enable=all
OK, so far so good. Peter indicated to run CONFIGURE, but that seems to just sit there
HAFNER> mc configure
%MSCPLOAD-I-CONFIGSCAN, enabled automatic disk serving
%TMSCPLOAD-I-CONFIGSCAN, enabled automatic tape serving



Btw, the unit initialization takes a while. The time is directly related to the storage set size (amount of disks). You can find out how it is proceeding by:

HSG80> show R1 (e.g a raidset, which name is R1)

Yes, exactly, just for the nodes with FC-HBA's.
When I try that
HSG80-BOT>set d11 enable=hafner
Error 1240: Connection hafner not found


You have to do it only on one controller (you are running them in failover mode of course).
Yes.

Just some checks:

Did you do
HSG80> SET D11 ID=11 ! This sets the identifier needed for VMS
HSG80> SET D11 ENA=node1,node2,... ! This allows the access to the disk for the cluster nodes

I presume you only enter those nodes which have an HBA?
Oh, and for each controller?



Then you should find them by doing:

$ mc sysman io auto
$ show devi dg

There are several IO subcommands. Select the one you want from
the choices below.

AUTOCONFIGURE CONNECT FIND_WWID LOAD REBUILD

Topic? io find

FIND_WWID
The IO FIND_WWID command probes all Fibre Channel ports, detects
all previously undiscovered tapes and medium changers behind a
Modular Data Router (MDR), and assigns a worldwide identifier
(WWID) to each one. The command also displays a list of the
devices and their assigned device names and automatically records
this information in the SYS$SYSTEM:SYS$DEVICES.DAT file. Finally,
the command updates relevant local and clusterwide memory
structures.
To configure newly attached Fibre Channel tapes, use this command
prior to running the SYSMAN command IO AUTOCONFIGURE.
You must have CMKRNL privilege to use the IO FIND_WWID command.
For more information about Fibre Channel, see the Guidelines for
OpenVMS Cluster Configurations.

Normally the CONFIGURE process does this for, that means they do appear
automatically if properly configured. (Did you do a SET Dxx ID=xxyy as

well?)

Do you mean
sysman> config set ?

The device I created, should have shown up as
$1$DGA11

Haven't done this before.
